Trailer Round-Up: The Amazing Spider-Man 2, The Monuments Men, Her, and More

Hello and welcome to this week’s Trailer Round-Up. The biggest trailer release belongs to next year’s The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Other hyped movies from next year with new trailers include The Monuments Men, 300: Rise of an Empire, Dom Hemingway, Pompeii, and In Secret. The lone trailer for a movie this year belongs to Her.

Check out all the embedded videos below.

The Amazing Spider-Man 2

It’s been awhile since we saw any video for The Amazing Spider-Man 2. That all changed late last week with the newest from Marc Webb’s follow-up to 2011’s Spider-Man reboot. Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone return with Dane DeHaan (Chronicle) and Jamie Foxx adding their names to the mix. The trailer will have to hold us over until May 2, 2014…or until another trailer.

The Monuments Men

A slightly different trailer released for The Monuments Men as well. The film, which was initially set to release this year, won’t land in U.S. theaters until February 7, 2014. It is directed by and stars George Clooney, with the rest of the cast including Matt Damon, Bill Murray, and John Goodman. Check out the latest U.K. trailer above.

Her

Quickly coming back to this year’s movies, Spike Jonze’s (Being John Malkovich) Her unveiled another trailer. Word seems pretty positive for this film so far (judging by how it is faring in early “End of Year” lists), so I’d see this movie as soon as you can. For most, that won’t be until after the New Year; however, Her will release in some markets on December 18th. The movie stars Joaquin Phoenix (The Master), Amy Adams, Rooney Mara (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo), and Scarlett Johansson’s voice.

300: Rise of an Empire

At this past weekend’s showing of Out of the Furnace (check out my review here), I had the opportunity (if that is the right word since I wasn’t too fond of it) to catch the newest 300: Rise of an Empire trailer. It stars Sullivan Stapleton (Cinemax’s Strike Back), Eva Green (Dark Shadows), and Rodrigo Santoro (300). It’s directed by Noam Murro.

Dom Hemingway

I’ve also attached a red-band trailer for Dom Hemingway. Richard Shepard’s (I Knew It Was You) newest film stars Jude Law (not looking or acting like Jude Law), Emilia Clarke (HBO’s Game of Thrones), and more. It’ll land in theaters on April 4, 2014.

Pompeii

On February 21, 2014, we’ll be able to see Pompeii. However, you can watch the latest trailer right now! The action-adventure film also stars an HBO’s Game of Thrones star in Kit Harington with Kiefer Sutherland (FOX’s 24) also appearing. Paul W.S. Anderson (Resident Evil) is credited as the director.

In Secret

The final trailer belongs to In Secret – a film starring Elizabeth Olsen (Martha Marcy May Marlene), Tom Felton (Harry Potter), and Jessica Lange (FX’s American Horror Story). Like Pompeii, this movie will release on February 21, 2014. The period drama is directed by Charlie Stratton.

Jordan, who currently resides in Seattle, WA, has slowly become a film fanatic over the past couple of years. He attributes his love for film to the smash hit THE DARK KNIGHT which has created an (un)healthy obsession with both Christopher Nolan and the Batman franchise. Although he appreciates all genres of film, his favorite movies are typically psychological thrillers, with an emphasis on non-traditional narratives.
